Tuning Into Teens™

COST: $150 for 6 sessions

DATES: February 16 to March 23, 2022

TIME: Wednesdays from 7.30 to 9.30pm EST

For the first half of 2022, we will be offering ONE online support group. It will meet weekly via Zoom for two hours, over a six-week period, and will have a minimum of four participants and a maximum of 12. We will have a wait list for additional interest once the maximum for a group is met.

This online support group is open to families with adopted youth aged 10 to 16 years. It is a program designed to help parents improve relationships and connect with their teens. Because teenage years can be tough.

Tuning Into Teens™ is designed to help parents:

  • understand how your teen thinks and feels;
  • learn ways to manage your teen’s emotions… and your own;
  • respond to your teen in ways that will help them talk more to you;
  • create a calmer home environment with less conflict.

“What I found to be most useful and this program is being able to connect with my teen on a level that allows me to feel what my teen might be feeling in times of difficulty and sadness, as well as when things are going well.”
